First of all, you have to PAY to get in???!!??? (side note, thanks to yelp, we were in free!). It's not like there's any kind of ambiance (it's the parking lot of the silverton!) or even shade. Also, you don't get a damn thing included in the price of admission!
There was a great selection of trucks, which is why I'm giving 2 stars. Unfortunately, the lines were so long at all of them, we ended up making our selections based on the shortness of the line. The little one and I had a fancy grilled cheese, which was really good, although slightly overpriced at $8. Mr. A had a po'boy from I can't remember where, which was good, but light on the shrimp and, again, overpriced, at $9. Add in a side of mac & cheese at $5 (and it was dinky....it came in one of those tiny paper cups that could be used to serve a small ice cream), a soda, and a watermelon lemonade at $3 (delicious), and we've spent $30 on food for 2 that is one step above fast food.
Note on the lines: we were there on Sunday and White Castle was up to a 6 hour wait!!! Weird because I've had those burgers in the Midwest and they're not even good. People were literally ordering 100 at a time. I would have liked to try Fukuburger since I've never had the chance, but their line was over an hour. No thanks.
We were able to find a seat under the canopy, so at least there was that.
Also, the foodie fest was connected to a carnival, which added to the crowd.
